One other question, what's the syntax for manipulating only the upper
bound of a range.

Say I have a Postgres function that does a "SELECT INTO" for an
existing tsrange.  Is there an easy way to change the variable's
upper bound whilst leaving the "old" lower bound intact ?

There may be easier/better ways, but for example this works:

8<------------------------------
insert into test
 values(42, '[2021-01-01, 2021-06-03)');
INSERT 0 1

select test_range from test where test_id = '42';
                     test_range
-----------------------------------------------------
 ["2021-01-01 00:00:00-05","2021-06-03 00:00:00-04")
(1 row)

update test
 set test_range = tstzrange(lower(test_range),
                            '2021-06-04', '[)')
where test_id = '42';
UPDATE 1

select test_range from test where test_id = '42';
                     test_range
-----------------------------------------------------
 ["2021-01-01 00:00:00-05","2021-06-04 00:00:00-04")
(1 row)
8<------------------------------
